Real savings to be found

Of the 769 1-2-1 reports produced by Resource Efficient Scotland in 2015/16:

  • 70% had opportunities to make savings on their

lighting – with an average savings of £3,500

  • 70% had opportunities to save money on their

heating – with average savings over £10,000

slide-27

Building the business case

slide-48
SLIDE 48

k Two questions from your finance department/boss/MD: 1.“How much is all this going to cost us?” 2.“When do we get our money back?” And the other questions they should be asking:

  • 1. Any other H&S considerations
  • 2. Any other benefits?

Building the business case

slide-49
SLIDE 49

k

  • 1. “How much is all this going to cost us?”

a) Rough estimate – price books on the internet, SPONS b) Quotes from contractors or suppliers Be aware: When looking at lighting control options, everything is context dependent:

  • accessibility of wiring
  • access to site

So it is safest to get firm quotes where any electrical work is involved

Simple Payback Period:

  • The amount of time in years that it takes for an

investment to be repaid by the savings it achieves

  • Ignores maintenance costs
  • Ignores savings through improved longevity

(as long as the payback period is less than the expected life of the equipment)

Understanding the units

Electricity Example A 1-bar electric fire has a power rating of 1kW Running for one hour uses 1kWh Assuming 13p per kWh = 13p per hour Gas Example A 27kW domestic gas boiler runs at a duty rate of 30% on a cold evening so the average power rating is 8.1kW Running for one hour uses 8.1kWh Assuming 4p per kWh = 32p per hour Energy is measured in kWh – kilowatt-hour One kWh is one unit on an electricity or gas bill A kilowatt-hour is the energy used by a 1000 watts appliance running for an hour

slide-67
SLIDE 67

k

Electric heating

  • Some buildings will use direct resistive heating

either for direct panel heaters or air-conditioning units

  • If you only have one electricity bill then you can make

a quick estimate that 50% of electricity is used for heating and 50% is used for all other electricity needs

  • Some electrically heated sites will have a separate

circuit supply storage heaters on a cheaper rate.

slide-68
SLIDE 68

k

Worked example

Q: Average gas cost for last 3 years is £6,300

– how many kWh of gas is being used if last bill says the unit rate is £0.04?

A: Answer gas kWh

= [gas cost £] / [unit cost in £/kWh] = £6,300/£0.04 = 157,500 kWh

slide-69
SLIDE 69

k

Worked example

Q: We know that 5 x 2kW electric bar fires are also

being used as supplementary heating for 8 hours

  • n 100 days per year.
  • How much is this costing compared to the gas?
  • The unit rate for electricity is £0.12/kWh

A: kWh of electricity = 10kW x 8 hours x 100 hours

= 8000kWh Cost of electricity = 8000kWh x £0.12/kWh = £960

slide-70

k

External factors

Identify other influences on your data:

  • Cost
  • Outside temperature or weather conditions

e.g. degree days

(www.eci.ox.ac.uk/research/energy/degreedays.php#degreeday)

slide-71
SLIDE 71

k

Benchmarking

  • To allow comparison between buildings it is useful

to compare kWh/m2/year (kilowatt-hours per square meter per year)

  • So for a 20m x 50m factory = 1000m2
  • Considering the previous example with 157,500kWh
  • Consumption per m2 = 157,500/1000 =

157.5kWh/m2/year

k

Heating distribution and control

slide-77
SLIDE 77

k

What do we mean by heat distribution?

  • The system that delivers heat from source to

point of use

  • Usually ‘wet system’ with radiators
  • Or air source heat pump
  • Offers good potential for savings via improved

controls

slide-78
SLIDE 78

k

  • Insulate pipework

– In plant rooms (easy fix velcro attachments are available for awkward flanges and bends) – Consider insulating distribution pipework if it does not contribute useful heat

  • Keep space around space heaters free

– Avoid files, desks and furniture up against heaters – Leave 15cm between radiators and furniture

  • Record your heating system settings

– Use a simple record sheet to record date and change made – Put dates in the diary (clock changes), Xmas holidays to change settings as needed

slide-79
SLIDE 79

k

Warm air distribution systems

  • May be HVAC system with gas boiler or ASHP

– Some HVAC systems can be adapted to make use

  • f free cooling (cold outside air) and excess heat internal to

the buildings (e.g. server rooms) – Consult a specialist

  • Consider VSDs (Variable Speed Drives) for HVAC and circulation

pumps

  • Ensure a dead band of 4 degrees C is set between heating and

cooling

slide-80
SLIDE 80

k

Typical heating controls

  • Time clocks
  • System thermostat
  • Localised thermostats such as thermostatic radiator valves (TRVs)
  • Zone controls (BEMS)
slide-81
SLIDE 81

k

Types of time control

  • Time clock

– Set start and finish times each day

  • 7 day timer

– Set for earlier start on Monday morning

  • Optimised heating controller

– Uses inside and outside temperature sensors – Learns your building heat up time for different temperatures – Switches on as late as possible

slide-82
SLIDE 82

k

  • Switch your heating off early

– Many buildings store heat effectively – People and IT can maintain the building temperature from mid-afternoon – Try moving your switch off time back an hour

  • Consider hot-desking

– Heat from occupants is concentrated in one area – Switch off heating earlier in un-occupied areas

  • Make sure colleagues understand controls
slide-83
SLIDE 83

k

  • Set appropriate temperatures

– Office / low activity 20°C – Workshop / high activity 16-18°C – Turning down setpoint by 1°C could save circa 8%

  • Locate thermostats carefully

– Not near doors – Not in sun

slide-84
SLIDE 84

k

Control heat gains

  • In shops

– Large heat gains from display lighting and refrigeration

  • In offices

– From occupants and electrical equipment

  • In factories

– From processes such as cooking, welding

  • In many lightweight buildings

– Solar gains through thin walls and glazing

slide-85

k

De-stratification fans

  • Useful for high ceiling premises with a large variation

in temperature with height and a reasonably well insulated and air tight building

Fuel switching

  • Consider switching if you are using a high price

fuel such as oil (but has reduced recently), LPG or electricity (day tariff).

  • Alternatives are
  • Natural gas
  • Biomass
  • Heat Pumps – Air, Ground or Water – source.
slide-89
SLIDE 89

k

Biomass

  • Burns wood in one of three forms
  • Logs (Large scale, low fuel costs)
  • Chips
  • Pellets (Smaller scale, higher fuel

cost)

  • High level of automation
  • Very low carbon factor
  • If sustainable fuel!

k

Lighting and perception – human factors

  • The lux level is not the only measure of how ‘bright’

a space feels.

  • Walls and ceiling colours are important
  • Light cast on the ceiling/walls is important
  • High contrast in intensity between light sources

causes eye-strain (e.g. bright window to side of computer monitor)

  • Glare from shiny surfaces can be a problem

Understanding the units

A 1-bar electric fire has a power rating of 1kW Running for an hour it uses 1kWh Assuming 13p per kWh = 13p per hour Electricity consumption is measured in kWh – kiloWatt-Hour A kWh is an amount of electricity – 1 unit on a bill A kiloWatt-Hour is the energy consumed when 1000 watts or 1kW runs for one hour The cost of a kWh varies 25 lamps on for 1 hour each using 20Watts will together use 0.5kWh Assuming 13p per kWh = 6.5p per hour

slide-107
SLIDE 107

k

Two approaches to estimating energy use for lighting

  • 1. Top-down approach
  • Look at electricity bill(s)
  • Arrive at an annual consumption figure (net of standing charges)
  • Estimate proportion of energy used for lighting and apply to bill
  • 2. Bottom-up Approach
  • Identify all lamp types (interior and exterior)
  • Count numbers of each lamp type – in each location
  • Estimate running hours per day of each location, and days per year
  • Calculate total energy used for lighting
slide-108
SLIDE 108

k

Use the top-down estimate to calibrate the bottom-up estimate (or vice versa) You have not included a section of lighting in your spreadsheet If top-down > bottom-up:

  • r

You have overestimated the proportion of energy used for lighting You have overestimated run-times of certain lamps, or days per year If top-down < bottom-up:

  • r

You have underestimated the proportion of energy used for lighting

Making the most of natural light

1. Ensure windows are clean 2. Remove furniture or other obstructions 3. Mount blinds above or to the side to avoid

  • bstructing the light

4. Locate desks near windows but consider glare

k Before you start:

  • Ensure that lighting is sufficient

for the tasks being performed – this is a good time to increase lux levels if required.

  • Look for any areas which could

be over-lit. Lower levels of light in corridors can be restful – as long as they are safe. (Check with your H&S officer)

k Eco Halogen

  • r

Tungsten filament CFL

The answer depends on your investment horizons. LEDs cost much more than CFLs or Eco Halogens so require greater capital outlay and take longer to repay the investment, but last longer and will lead to a reduced maintenance bill and less disruption. The payback period also depends on your run hours per annum.

T12 40W LED 11W

The answer depends on your investment horizons. LEDs cost much more than T5s so require greater capital outlay and take longer to repay the investment, but last longer and will lead to a reduced maintenance bill and less disruption. The payback period also depends on your run hours per annum.

  • r

GU10 50W

Lamp replacement: halogens

Again, the answer depends on your investment horizons. LEDs cost more than Eco Halogens so require greater capital outlay and take longer to repay the investment, but LEDs last longer so could produce a higher net saving in the long run. The payback period also depends on your run hours per annum.

Do I replace all my lamps in one go or wait until they fail?

  • To discard a working lamp results in a “wasted asset”
  • Resource efficiency is about more than just energy use and carbon emissions
  • The answer depends on a number of factors:
  • Difficulty of accessing lamps (if access equipment is needed then it makes

sense to replace all the lamps in a selected area)

  • Length of run time per day
  • Investment horizons
  • Availability of cash
  • Work out the “Whole Life Cost”

Lamp replacement: All or Part?

The principles of behaviour change

slide-129
SLIDE 129

k

What do we mean?

Awareness raising, engagement, communications… Behaviour change is much more. You need to understand why people behave in certain ways, then communicate the benefit of making the change. The ultimate goal is not just to change behaviour but to ESTABLISH & SUSTAIN IT over time

slide-130
SLIDE 130

k

Behavioural Economics

  • Other people’s behaviour matters
  • Habits are important
  • People are motivated to ‘do the right thing’
  • People’s self-expectations influence how they behave
  • People need to feel involved and effective to make a change

k

Ability, motivation and trigger

slide-132
SLIDE 132

k

What is ability?

  • The degree to which someone has the skills or tools

to carry out the behaviour

  • It can be time, attention or resources
  • External factors can influence ability

e.g. the right infrastructure

slide-133
SLIDE 133

k

What’s in it for me?

  • Receiving positive feedback
  • Wellbeing
  • Being given interesting new challenges
  • Feeling pride
  • Satisfaction for doing something well
  • Seeing their team perform well
  • Money
slide-134
SLIDE 134

k

Finding the trigger

  • The primary reasons for not changing are ‘lack of

time’ or it not being the norm

  • You need to prompt staff to carry out the

behaviour

  • Trigger points are moments in time when an

action is more likely to take place – Times of the day – Changes in the norm

  • Different audiences will have different triggers

k

The importance of engaging staff

  • Reduced costs
  • Increased productivity
  • Enhanced brand reputations
  • Attract and keep employees
  • Minimise wasteful practices
